Two BLIND MEN RESTORED TO s1eHr.


AS JESUS went from the home of Jairus to
his own home, probably, two blind men are
said to have followed him imploring his mer-
ciful aid and ascribing to him Messianic
title. The predicted Messiah was to be a de-
scendant of David, Israel's greatest king.
Among the predicted results of the Messiah
who should promote the prosperity and hap
piness of Israel, was that "the eyes of the
blind should be opened" in removing the
affections of the people. In Palestine and
the East blindness is common affiiction of
the people, owing to various obvious causes,
the Astounding dust, the dazzling light and
heet of the sun, and the common practice of
sleeping in the open air, etc. JESUS appears
not to have regarded the cry of the blind
men as he iourneyed, probably because he
did not wish to recognize the title Of Messiah
and the dangerous notoriety it would occa-
sion, or he wished to test their faith in him
and his power to heal them. They followed
him to the house in which he entered. In
reply to JEsUs' inquiry, they declared en-
phatically that they believed that he could
heal them. Their genuine faith in his Mes
siahship would involve this. Then JESUS
touched their eyes, saying, "Be it done to
you according to your faith" Obtaining
their sight, Jesus strictly charged them not
to tell of it. Notwithstanding their faith,
their characters we're defective. They dis
obeyed the Masters strongly expressed wish.
"They published his fame in all the land"
Their conduct may have been well meant,

MASON AND HAML1N PIANOS

Mason & Hamlin bid fair to become as
famous for their upright pianos as they have
long been for their world renowned cabinet
organs. The distinguishing feature about
the Mason g. Hamlin Upright is an impor-
tant improvement in the method of holding
the strings of the piano, which originated in
their own factory. The strings are secured
by metallic fastenings, instead of by the
friction of pins set in wood, as has been the
case, and the advantages resulting are nu-
merous and highly important. Among them
are the following: Wonderful beauty and
musical quality of tone; far less liability of
getting out of tune; greater reliability in
trying climates; and greater solidity of con-
struction and durability.

AN INFrRM WOMAN CURED,

We are informed by Mark and Luke that
the home of Matthew to heal the rulers
daughter. Among the number was woman
with chronic hemorrhage of twelve years.
standing, who had exhausted her means en-
ploying physicians, whose treatment had ag-
gravated the disease rather than cured it, She
thought that if she but touched the border
or fringe of JEsCs' garment, she might be
healed, and doing SO, she was Immediately
healed, or saved from her distressing malady.
We know nothing of the particular nature of
the affection. 1t was probable case of cere-
monial uncleaIness, which may have been
the reason of her apparent timidity and Sc
cret approach to JESUS (Leviticus XIV. 25).
The most obvious supposition as to the ma
ture of the disease is probably correct. JE-
sUs recognized her approach and touch and
kindly assured her that her faith had saved
her. JESUS used the same word for bodily
healing that he employs for spiritual saliva
ton. Salvation is cure; deliverance from
spiritual disease by radical change of mo-
tives of conduct and of the direction of spir-
itusl forces. through faith, the souls normal
attitude, and relation with COP. The faith
of the infirm woman may not have been the
source of the healing, but its procuring cause,
and may have rendered her susceptible to
the healing power of JESUS. That faith and
courage are important conditions in the
healing of bodily diseases cannot be denied.
What was JESUS act 10 effecting the cure we
may not precisely know. We are not to in
fer, however, from this additional account
by Mark and Luke, that his influence in the
case was entirely involuntary. The forth
going power of which JESUS was conscious
was involuntary power occasioned or induced,
not by the woman's touch, but by her faith,
and his action described by the two Evan
gelists was to convince her of this important
fact. The faith of the woman elected the
Divine sympathy and ealth-giving energy
of JESUS and she was saved from the scourge
of her life, healed and preserved in health
from that hour. To call the miracle faith
cure does not explain the mystery. 1t may
have been that JESUS said it was, certainly to
the extent that the healing was occasioned
by faith.
Was the healing of the woman miraculous,
or only caused by the influence of mind over
body, such as is not unfrequently witnessed,
and such as explains modern 30 called mir
aculous cures where only superstition per-
ceives supernatural agency? But their very
words influence of mind over body" with
which we are SO familiar, are they not, SO to
speak, symbolic and typical? Do they not
point to the probability, and beyond it, to
the fact of such influence of the GoD-man, of
the command which he welded over the
body? May not command of soul over body
be part of unfallen mans original inherit
ance, almost fully realized in the Perfect
Man, the God-Man to whom was given the
absolute rule of all things, and who has it in
virtue of his nature? These are only dim
feelings after possible higher truths.-Eder-
